In the treatment of amenorrhea, systemic treatment plays an important role. It includes active treatment of systemic diseases, improving the overall quality of the body, and then providing adequate nutrition to maintain standard weight. In cases of exercise-induced amenorrhea, it is appropriate to reduce the amount of exercise. For amenorrhea caused by stress and psychological reasons, patient psychological therapy should be conducted to eliminate mental tension and anxiety. If the amenorrhea is caused by pathological conditions like tumors or polycystic ovary syndrome, then etiological treatment should be given. Once the cause of the disease is identified, appropriate hormonal treatment should be provided to supplement insufficient hormones in the body and counteract excess, aiming to regulate and treat amenorrhea.

Can you get pregnant after menopause?

If menstruation has already ceased, it is generally not possible to become pregnant. This is because after menopause, ovarian function has essentially declined, and there is no regular secretion of estrogen and progesterone. Thus, there is no development and presence of mature follicles, making pregnancy highly unlikely. Currently, symptoms can only be addressed by utilizing assisted reproductive technologies. If menstruation ceases before the typical age of menopause, early ovarian failure should be considered, and appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic measures should be taken.

What are the harms of premature menopause?

The normal age of menopause for women in our country is around 49 years old. If menopause occurs during this period, it's generally not a big issue. However, if menopause occurs prematurely, it typically indicates a decline in ovarian function or early ovarian failure. This can cause disruptions in marital relations for women, and if menopause happens too early, it can lead to premature symptoms of menopause. Symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, irritability can occur, and in severe cases, it may lead to diseases related to blood pressure and cardiovascular health. Therefore, premature menopause does have an impact on health. If these symptoms appear prematurely, it is crucial to go to the hospital for appropriate adjustment and treatment.

How to quickly induce menstruation when it has stopped.

Women with amenorrhea should first undergo a blood and urine HCG test to rule out the possibility of pregnancy. After excluding pregnancy, it is generally necessary to check the female sex hormone levels and thyroid function. Sometimes, specific diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperprolactinemia, and premature ovarian failure can cause amenorrhea, and these specific diseases should be treated accordingly to induce menstruation. For polycystic ovary syndrome, treatment often involves the use of oral contraceptives to induce menstruation; for hyperprolactinemia, treatment typically involves the use of bromocriptine; for premature ovarian failure, estrogen-progestogen cycle replacement is usually prescribed. (Please use medications under the guidance of a doctor.)

Can you get pregnant with menstrual disorder and amenorrhea?

When women experience menstrual disorders such as amenorrhea, most of them are unable to conceive. This is because the ovarian secretion of hormones is abnormal during this period, and there is an ovulation obstacle, usually resulting in the absence of eggs. Thus, sexual intercourse during this time generally does not lead to conception. However, a very small number of women may experience occasional ovulation during amenorrhea. If they have normal sexual relations without contraception during this time, conception could still occur. Nonetheless, many women have abnormal hormone levels during amenorrhea, so even if pregnancy occurs, the abnormal hormone levels in early pregnancy could lead to complications such as missed abortion and miscarriage. It is recommended that women who want to conceive should first undergo regular treatment to restore normal menstrual cycles and resume ovulation before actively trying to conceive.

Amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation.

Amenorrhea is a type of endocrine disorder and menstrual irregularity in women. Normally, women have a menstrual period once a month. If there is no menstrual period for three consecutive months, it is medically referred to as amenorrhea. There are physiological and pathological types of amenorrhea. Physiological amenorrhea, such as during pregnancy, is normal when periods stop. Or it could be a physiological abnormality, for example, not having periods for three months during breastfeeding, which is also considered physiological. Pathological amenorrhea commonly includes conditions like intrauterine adhesions or ovarian dysfunction, premature ovarian failure, and so on. In such cases, it is necessary to visit a hospital for relevant examinations and then provide treatment based on the results of those examinations.
